I feel like most of it is private ownership. The minute you enter the CEO/Board of Directors ecosystem with investors to pay and expectations of eternal growth, everything turns to shit.

I never got to watch it as a kid because fundie parents, but my wife made me watch a few eps as an adult and I gotta say it holds up remarkably well.

You google "wood block style meme print" and find a decent retailer. Bonus points for buying from the artist themselves.

Ok, but that headline is weird. I can tell you exactly why he said that shit and it's not bizarre, it's just gross.

Trump's rhetoric relies on a wide variety of in-group references and cultural touch points and pretending to be the reasonable one while framing anyone left of him as an absurd caricature is how Trump do. It's what his base likes. They want to pretend that their opponents are ridiculous people concerned about cruelty to flies instead of basic necessities like pest control. They've built this whole narrative where Democrats are simultaneously weak, ineffective losers and also somehow a grave threat to the very fabric of our nation.

To his base It doesn't matter if the specifics are factual, what matters is that the broader gesture feels true (by affirming their existing biases).

Classic fascist playbook tbh.

If I can't do any of my favorite murders then what's the point of traveling? Stupid woke Japanese ruin everything.

WHY. What is so appealing about the toilet paper roll?

Strangely enough I had the same thought! OP must have nailed it.

Well ... plus if you're alive that long and can't manage to get rich via compound interest you deserve to be staked.
